10、, 2015), the positive re-lationships could also reflect an inflated sense of the self and a “know-it-all” attitude that may be dysfunctional.In contrast, socially prescribed perfectionism showed a unique neg-ative relati
11、onship with career adaptability. Because the negative rela-tionship was not evident in the bivariate correlations, we assume thepresence of a suppressor effect whereby the positive relationships thatself-oriented and oth
12、er-oriented perfectionism showed with careerplanning attitudes “masked” the negative relationship of socially pre-scribed perfectionism with career adaptability, so it emerged onlywhen the overlap with self-oriented and
13、other-oriented perfectionismwas controlled statistically. This finding demonstrates that the positiverelationships that perfectionism dimensions associated with PSP havewith indicators of psychological adjustment can sup

15、howedwith career adaptability was expected and dovetails with Page et al.'s(2008) finding that ECP showed a positive correlation with vocationalcommitment indicating that students high in ECP are less flexible inthei
16、r vocational choices and less willing to adapt their career plansthan students low in ECP.4.2. Limitations and future studiesThe present study has a number of limitations. First, the studyemployed a cross-sectional corre
17、lational design. Consequently, themultiple regressions indicating that perfectionism predicted careerplanning attitudes should not be interpreted in a causal or temporalfashion. Second, whereas we expected self- and othe
18、r-oriented per-fectionism to show positive relationships with career planning, andsocially prescribed perfectionism to show negative relationships,the exact pattern of positive and negative relationships we found inthe m
19、ultiple regressions was not predicted. These findings mustawait replication and extension to consider actual career-related de-cisions, choices, and behavior. Third, our study focused on positivecareer planning attitudes
20、 and Hewitt and Flett's (1991) model ofperfectionism. Future studies may want to include negative attitudesand also examine models of perfectionism that include other-oriented perfectionism and grandiose narcissism (
